Children's room interior: designed for the next few years, not just this one

The layout allows for growth rather than fitting one age

A children's room is designed not for the child's current age but with the next few years in mind: a cot will eventually give way to a full-size bed, a play table to a desk for schoolwork, and sockets and lighting can't be moved every time the furniture changes. So power for a future desk is planned in advance, even if a playpen or play mat stands there now, and the wall and floor finishes are chosen to be neutral enough that décor and textiles can be changed without redecorating.

Light for homework gets its own circuit from the first drawings

The desk in a children's room gets directional light with no glare on the monitor and no shadow from the writing hand, so it needs its own lighting circuit rather than a lamp added to the room's ambient lighting. Where the desk sits in relation to the window and this light fitting is worked out at the layout stage, not when the furniture goes in after the renovation: light from the left for a right-handed child and from the right for a left-handed one usually works best, and it is far easier to plan for in advance than to fix later by swapping the desk and the bed round.

Materials are chosen for everyday wear, not just for looks

In our projects, the finishes in a children's room are chosen for how well they survive cleaning, drawings on the wall and a repair to one section without redecorating the whole room: washable surfaces and repairable coatings are more practical than decorative finishes that can't take a damp cloth. The floor is chosen to feel warm underfoot and stand up to dropped toys, not just to match the colour palette of the rest of the home.

Storage grows with the child

Storage in a children's room is usually modular: lower sections for the toys needed now, upper ones for things the child will grow into and be able to reach in a few years. The clothes rail in the wardrobe is often height-adjustable, so at first an adult hangs up the clothes, and years later the child can do it without a stool.
